Too Long to Read? Free Tools to Summarize Any Article (opens in new tab)

You do not have to choose between staying informed and staying sane. A handful of free, off-the-shelf tools can condense almost any long article into a short, accurate summary in seconds, then let you decide whether the full piece is worth your time. For a person with ADHD, that single step lowers the steep activation energy required by long-form reading. The goal is not to read less — it is to reach the point sooner, so the ideas actually land instead of getting lost in the scroll.
